Just a quick picture of the kids from tonight. We have Sam as Indiana Jones, Clay as Mutt Williams (aka Henry Jr), Amelia as Little Bo Peep, and Emma as the lamb. I wish I'd taken more time to take pictures because they were all so priceless all night long. We do quite a bit of traveling in the car on Halloween night, making visits. It really is fun and has become somewhat of a tradition to visit Grandpa up at the ranch, Uncle Burton and Aunt Evelyn, and our old neighbors, Mark and Meryl. This year we added a couple of friends(and about 20 miles) to our list and we were happy that we did! Our little lamb and bo peep did not make it home awake, but when we pulled Emma out of her car seat she was surrounded with candy. Amelia caught on pretty quick and was the first one to each door, reaching for all she could to hit that doorbell. Emma was very interested in each thing that was put into her pumpkin. When she got a little can of playdough, she ran to the car, waving it at Nate (who was driving), saying, na-na-na-na-na-na. What a riot. Clay had to show off his missing teeth and his new sword to everyone we stopped at. We had to tell him to stop telling people that Sam couldn't have the candy they were passing out {he's allergic to nuts}, that we would all combine and redistribute so that Sam was taken care of. I think he enjoyed the socializing just as much as the candy. Sam was the first and the loudest to say thank you. He's really a very gracious boy. OK, so you got more than just a picture. I guess I didn't want to lose the feeling of the night. We really had a ton of fun.

What cute little spooks! I always liked going all over the place for the people and the candy. And I'm sure Grandma Eve and Grandpa Burt were thrilled with their visitors! They LOVE it!! Happy Halloween!
The kids look so cute. It sounds like you had a fun, busy night. I am so bad, I didn't get a single picture of my kids dressed up. We had a party and I spent the night cooking instead of pictures. Oh well. We are coming up tomorrow. We will stop by.
So fun, well next year we can trick or treat together! I am looking forward to that. Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog. I can't wait to be closer to you especially. I am hoping some of your wonderful traits will rub off on me.
So adorable! The kids wish they could see their cousins - just like grandma will. We definitely look forward to you being here at Christmastime!
